See the child in me
In my fantasy
Never growing old
Will we ever feel young again
I love you sometimes
Always never
He said you’re here
Here with me now
It’s growing cold
I’m growing old
Is this the only way to see a fire?
It’s raining
When your hair is silver white
And your cheeks no longer bright
With the roses of the May
I will kiss your lips and say.
Oh! My darling, mine alone, alone
You have never older grown
Yes, my darling, mine alone
You have never older grown.
Old man, take a look at my life
Twenty-four and there’s so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two
Love lost, such a cost
Give me things that don’t get lost
Like a coin that won’t get tossed
Rolling home to you…
Though it’s cold and lonely in the deep dark night,
I can see paradise by the dashboard light.
It’s a lonely ol’ night
Can I put my arms around you?
It’s a lonely ol’ night
Custom made for two lonely people like me and you
Lonely night, I cry myself to sleep
Tell me, what am I gonna do
'Cause it’s always been you to dry my tears
It’s always been you to wash away my fears
It’s always been you each night and day
Now what can I say when love slips away?
Cast adrift from past relationships in her life
Hoisted up the ideal, this was her saving grace
Seas of rage that once assailed her concern for the truth
Had passed her by and left her high and dry
In her saviour’s arms
My Jesus, my Saviour,
Lord there is none like you.
All of my days, I want to praise,
The wonders of your mighty love.
Jesus, lover of my soul,
let me to thy bosom fly,
while the nearer waters roll,
while the tempest still is high.
Hide me, O my Savior, hide,
till the storm of life is past;
safe into the haven guide;
O receive my soul at last
Levon sells cartoon balloons in town,
His family business thrives.
Jesus blows up balloons all day,
Sits on the porch swing watching them fly…
Cause I was lost
I was gone
Listening to Levon
In another world
In another place
I was lost
I was gone
Listening to Levon
I was looking at Mary’s eyes
But, I was listening to Levon…
Ever had the feeling you’ve been here before?
Drinking down the poison the way you were taught
Ever thought from here on in your life begins
And all you knew was wrong?
Arriving somewhere but not here
Are you drinkin’ with me, Jesus?
I can’t see you very clear.
Are you drinkin’ with me, Jesus?
Would you buy a friend a beer?

Among the local taverns they’ll be a slack in business
‘Cause Jesse’s drinkin’ came before the groceries and the rent
Among the local women they’ll be a slack in cheatin’
‘Cause Jesse won’t be steppin’ out again
They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm
They all cried, “Hallelujah” when Jesse’s head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen
Nobody knows but Jesus
Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen
Glory, Hallelujah
Sometimes I’m up, sometimes
I’m down, ohh, yes Lord
Sometimes I’m almost
To the ground, oh yes, Lord
Louis Armstrong
Into the wind
I throw the night
Silver and gold
Turn into light
I’m on the road
I know the way
Everything flows
Here comes another new day
Alleluia, alle-alle alleluia

On the road again,
I just can’t wait to get on the road again,
The life I love is makin’ music with my friends,
And I can’t wait to get on the road again.
Willie Nelson, “On the Road Again.”
Hey, pretty baby are you ready for me?
It’s your good rockin’ daddy down from Tennessee.
I’m just outta Austin bound for San Antonio,
With the radio blastin’ and the Bird Dog on…
All my ex’s live in Texas
And Texas is the place I’d dearly love to be
But all my ex’s live in Texas
And that’s why I hang my hat in Tennessee
